    Agree I dont know that I've seen a half of basketball that poor out of a team this season.....especially not out of a team with a 12-6 record in a legit conference playing an inferior team.  

    You should be able to tell within the first 5 minutes of the second half if we have a shot....if Illinois State comes out with intensity I think they will have this tied up somewhere around the under 10-12 and this will be a nail biter down the stretch

    If you didn't ride this game with us from the outset I would say go the other way and take Illinois State 2h.  Chances are they are going to make some adjustments offensively but their defense will still play well as it did in the first half.  This is their season, this is a team that beat Wichita State and went 12-6 in this conference.  I dont see them rolling over and if they can come back and take the lead I see them winning the game in which case we should have a good shot of covering the -3.5

     

    Its not like they weren't driving to the rim too.  They got no foul calls in the first 13 minutes of play.  Refs rewarded Indiana State for active defense. 

    To play as bad as they did and only be down 7 is really insane.  Wouldn't shock me at all if they won by 10

    I think the refs are watching Taylor head bob and contort his body in the air.... They aint buying it..  Even if it is a foul, he's trying too hard.

    Thank you for Texas guys.  Doubled down at half and made up for a really bad day.  

    Only down 1 unit for the day, I'd be even if I hadn't blown another unit on this AWFUL Indiana State game.  

    Good luck tomorrow guys, regroup and dominate.

    Do you know what the helll went on with the line before tipoff for this game?   I have COC -7 and I see it went off at -11.

    I seen it too that's why I jump on the 2nd half bet it was a sucker get. Never seen it up 7 at half and line is -7 game and half they gave -5.5 I thought someone was out and was going to be a blowout. Sorry for the loss

    Interesting day of college basketball, quite a few upsets.  Overall today was a +money day for me, mostly thanks to NBA.  Illinois St. was my big money loser today, surprised at how bad they played.  Texas also came close to costing me a decent bit of change.  Luckily Delaware came to play and easily covered.

    Saturday is looking juicy.  Already lots of good picks on thread.  Good luck everyone.
